Goodrich Corporation has completed wheel and brake certification testing on the Boeing 777-300ER long-range aircraft.

The certification test programme - which concluded with the successful worn brake Rejected Take-Off (RTO) at Edwards Air Force base last month - covers four years of work with aircraft manufacturer Boeing to develop wheel and brake equipment to meet the requirements of the aircraft.

The Goodrich 777 Long Range wheel and brake equipment will enter into service in April 2004, with Air France as the launch customer.
